It’s an honor to return to ConnCAN as interim executive director and steward this movement through the final weeks of the legislative session–and into the next chapter of its incredible story.
Thirteen years ago, a scrappy but ambitious team–including myself and Founding Executive Director Alex Johnston–took a leap of faith on the idea that a small group of committed citizen advocates could help change public education in Connecticut for the better.
After seven years of helping bring the CAN model to new states across the country, I’m honored to be back on the ConnCAN team during such a busy and important time for education in the state we love.
In coming weeks I will be sharing updates on our three big legislative goals and leading the search for ConnCAN’s next great leader.
If you’ll be in New Haven the next two days for the Yale School of Management Education Leadership Conference, come meet our team! Text CONNCAN to (203) 590-9451 during the event, and we’ll make sure you get a free copy of our 2018 Field Guide to Education.
I look forward to working alongside you in the weeks and months ahead.
